The Daily Cal won nine awards (EDIT: nine individual, 11 total) at the California College Media Association awards presentation last weekend. Translation: We may not be perfect, but at least we’re better than other daily college newspapers in the state.
The Daily Cal got ultimate bragging rights with first place for “General Excellence,” and the Clog would personally like to claim victory with “Breaking news online.” May we remind you that we placed third last year in this category? We think we shall.
Last year, the Daily Cal won a total of 12 awards, but we’d like to blame the dip in laurel wreaths on UCLA’s general selfishness in picking up about 25 awards. Oh, and perhaps all the inches and time we devoted to oak coverage.
Here’s how the Daily Cal stacked up:

We’d like to congratulate all the DC winners, especially (yet another!) ex-pat, Gerald Nicdao. We think Beetle may beg to differ with these results, but maybe that’s because we’re only No. 2 in editorial writing. Damn.
